I’ve never been to Albuquerque during the Balloon Festival, but it’s definitely on my bucket list. From what I’ve heard, Old Town is a great place to explore if you want a mix of local culture, shops, and food. A couple of friends also recommended checking out the Sandia Peak Tramway for some really amazing views.
I’m also curious to hear what others suggest. Always good to get tips from people who’ve actually been there!
